I know. I am very sad about the lack of evidence for extra-terrestrial colonization.
Probably our alien forebearers altered the genetic structures of their offspring to provide adaptive value within the climate of Earth. As a pattern for these alteration they would of course use the DNA of existing fauna, resulting in our apparent genetic similarities with other life on this planet.
